I went down to the station
               D
Just to take a ride
       G
I went down to the station
               D
Just to take a ride
        A7
Found myself on a flatcar
            D
Yesterday behind

Verse 2:
Continues after the ad
Pullin' out from the platform
There was no brass band
I pulled out from the platform
Nobody raise a hand
There were no tears or regrets
>From the runaway train
Train, train, train, train

(instrumental, same pattern as 
verses)

Verse 3:
Got no sand in my pocket
You know I ain't tied down
With no sand in my pocket
Never do sit down
I'm just a cross-tie walker
Where the freight trains run
Run, run, run, run

(instrumental, same pattern as 
verses)

Verse 4:
If you see me a-comin'
Don't you waste my time
If you see me a-comin'
Don't you waste my time
'Cause there're more miles between 
us
Than the Santa Fe line
Run, run, run
